Atelier Lumieres Van Gogh

Atelier Lumieres Van Gogh
I was fortunate to see the Atelier des Lumières Vincent van Gogh digital exhibition in Paris in 2019. The show was so crowded and I was frustrated taking my photos until I finally realized that instead of 'fighting' the crowds' I could make the audience the best part of the photo. The people on the balcony viewing area made such lovely silhouettes. I learned a lot that day about going with the flow.

Makrofan, raingirl, m̌ ḫ, TRIPOD MAN and 2 other people have particularly liked this photo

I cut and pasted my original comments so it's now part of the photo description, so I think this is closer to what you wanted, but if not, that's not a problem not to post the photo. I like the idea that you're exploring in this group.

Yes, thank you. And I appreciate to have the opportunity to learn an original story - it's often we want the 'perfect' photo without people. And later we see, there's just buildings or whatever. I believe that photography in first place is to document the moment in the interesting/original way.

Welcome on board, and keep sharing your stories along the photographs.

superb! great idea to go with what was happening. our pre-conceived ideas can get in the way sometimes (a lot of the time?). i love that you've created art from art! recursive art is fascinating, i think. and the people you caught in silhouette are really great.

would you add it to my group 'pure art'?

You bet I will add it to your group, I'm honoured to be asked. This will always be one of my favourite photos, I had the image made into a small canvas print and I've also printed in on to tissue paper for gift giving!
